Chapter 305 Laxative

Once the 50 kilograms of sweet potato flour came out, only Kaiyang County’s 120 million kilograms of corn flour could compete with it.

Lin Xiao'e was worried that they would donate their own food rations, so she rushed over to inquire about the situation. The county magistrate of Kaiyang County said generously that these were donations from a large amount of food that every household had kept.

Half of the 120 million kilograms of corn flour was grown by the soldiers of the Wu'an Army. It's their own food, so there's nothing wrong with giving it to them.

Lin Xiao'e was shocked. Is Wuanjun so good at farming?
The grain donation office of the City Lord's Mansion is bustling with people every day, with people constantly delivering food and supplies.

It was not until five days later that the county governors who were going to the capital city carried their weapons, mounted their horses, and followed the endless convoy to leave Taoyuan City.

Yan Cuicui looked at Xu Yuanzhi's figure getting farther and farther away, took out a handkerchief and wiped her face.

Her son is going to be promoted, she should be happy.

But I still feel sad when I see my son so tired.

No, the whole family is making progress, she can’t fall behind!
……

……

Jiang Xinran and Xiao Baoping took Liu Ru to sit in the carriage, while Liu Zhen rode a horse and walked side by side with Xu Yuanzhi behind the carriage.

Liu Zhen looked at the carriage and suddenly asked, "I heard that Qingzhu County donated 50 kilograms of sweet potato flour?"

Xu Yuanzhi came back to his senses and replied with a smile, "Yes, didn't your county also donate 100,000 kilograms of wheat?"

Liu Zhen glanced at him and changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that we will be assigned to several states around the capital. Is there any place you want to go?"

He kept an eye on Xu Yuanzhi's expression, wanting to see what kind of answer he would give.

Xu Yuanzhi looked at the carriage and his face suddenly turned red.

Liu Zhen: ???
You are asking a serious question, right?

So what improper things did this boy think of?
Otherwise, why would he be blushing for no reason?
He looked in the direction Xu Yuanzhi was looking, and saw Liu Ru leaning on the window, looking out curiously.

Is there anything else Liu Zhen doesn’t understand?
Great! He said that this guy always behaved strangely every time he saw his sister, and now he finally caught him red-handed!
At such a young age, he has not made progress and is thinking about love affairs. He must report this to His Majesty!

His Majesty said that this group of people must be 18 years old before they can talk about marriage, so he must ask His Majesty to keep the two of them far apart! To prevent this kid from playing the trick of being close to the water and getting the moon first!
Xu Yuanzhi didn't know that Liu Zhen had already imagined so much in his mind. He just felt that after not seeing her for such a long time, Sister Liu Ru seemed to be more beautiful.

"Xiao Ru, we will be neighbors this time." Liang Xinran held Liu Ru's arm, and Xiao Baoping held the other one.

Liu Ru nodded. Being neighbors with her sisters had more advantages than disadvantages. For example, when she was assigned to work in the grassland before, some troublemakers caused trouble right after she arrived. She sent a letter to her two sisters as quickly as possible, and they immediately brought people to help without saying a word, and dealt with those troublemakers completely.

Xiao Baoping sighed, "I just hope that the county can have more land this time."

There wasn't much land in the county where she worked before, so it took her a lot of time just to lead the people in reclaiming the land after she moved there.

She did not expect to be assigned to a wealthy county, but hoped to be assigned to one with more land. More land would produce more, and the people would not go hungry.

Agriculture is the foundation of the people, and filling their stomachs is the first priority.

Liu Ru patted her hands and said, "When the time comes, we should go and apply to His Majesty and ask for the county with the most land. His Majesty will not refuse."

Jiang Xinran disagreed, "This is not good. If everyone uses the back door, it will be a mess, and it will not be fair to others."

In fact, she didn't care what kind of county she was assigned to. She had taken too many detours in the previous county, and she had gained experience and made a summary. She believed that no matter what kind of county she was assigned to this time, she would be able to govern it well.

……

……

Qiongzhou, Baima County. Shen Liuyun sat cross-legged on a low couch.

He was wearing a dark gown and had a folding fan on his waist. He was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, without a beard, and was extremely handsome. He did not look like a general, but more like a suave young man from aristocratic family.

Sitting opposite him was a black-faced young general in armor, who was none other than Zhuge Jinyi.

Zhuge Jinyi is now much calmer than before and has lost his childishness.

"Young Prince, this raid...are you sure you want to go?" Shen Liuyun was worried.

To be honest, he was not very happy.

The king has only one biological brother, the little prince. If he were to die on the battlefield, he would have a hard time explaining himself.

Their Divine Army has not yet fought against the Northwest Army, so they don't know how strong the other side is.

"Young Prince, I heard that you studied in Taoyuan City of Dayu. I wonder if you know the Northwest Army..." Shen Liuyun didn't finish his words, but Zhuge Jinyi understood what he meant.

But Zhuge Jinyi didn't know much. He only knew that they usually spent their time either studying or farming.

He felt that Shen Liuyun would definitely not believe what he said, and he himself felt it was outrageous. After organizing his words for a long time, he finally managed to say, "I only know that they are good at farming..."

I heard that the first time we planted the land, we had a good harvest.

Shen Liuyun: ...

Look at what he said. Doesn’t he think it’s outrageous?
He spoke again, "What is the strength of the Northwest Army...?"

Zhuge Jinyi: ...How would he know?

"Their progress is a little slower than Taoyuan Primary School. When I came back, they should have just finished the first grade curriculum..."

Shen Liuyun: ...

Okay, I know that the young prince can't be relied on, he still has to rely on himself.

According to reports from spies, the Northwest Army was running low on food and could only last half a month at most. He planned to send an elite team to launch a surprise attack, then make a feint to the east and attack in the west to burn the Northwest Army's food and grass.

He looked at Zhuge Jinyi steadily, "Young Prince, tomorrow night's action is very important, you..."

Before he could even say "Why don't you just not participate", Zhuge Jinyi had already stood up and said confidently, "Don't worry, I won't hold you back!"

Shen Liuyun: ...

After the others left, Shen Liuyun called his confidant and explained, "This...this..."

The confidant hesitated, "General...is this really okay?"

Shen Liuyun fanned himself a few times with his folding fan. He felt that he must have got a sore throat and needed to ask the military doctor to prescribe some medicine.

"Alright, just do as I say. If anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility!"

Seeing that he was angry, his confidants nodded rapidly.

All right, as long as the young prince can't blame me when the time comes.

The general was too mean. In order to prevent the young prince from being a drag on the battlefield, he actually wanted to give him a laxative.

What on earth are you thinking?
